Celui qui plante un arbre plante un espoir

Celui qui plante un arbre plante un espoir

Première strophe en anglais :

He who plants a tree

Clear DotPlants a hope.

Clear DotRootlets up through fibres blindly

Clear Dotgrope;

Leaves unfold into horizons free.

Clear DotSo man’s life must climb

Clear DotFrom the clods of time

Clear DotUnto heavens sublime.

Canst thou prophesy, thou little tree,

What the glory of thy boughs shall

Clear Dot be?

Planter un arbre
